As described in a film magazine review,[2] Mrs. Hoyt is infatuated with Dergan, the managing editor of her husband’s newspaper. Dergan buys a hat similar to Hoyt’s and then calls on Mrs. Hoyt. Moha, faithful to his master, shoots at Dergan but kills another maan, a crook. Mrs. Hoyt hides the hat. Tip O’Neil, a reporter, is aware of Dergan’s real villainy and the fact that Dergan is “playing” for the newspaper stock which Mrs. Hoyt owns. So when Dergan tries to win the affection of Mary Burton, who also works in the office. Tip gets busy and frustrates Dergan’s every move.
